The treatment and management of lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (LR-MDS) has remained a challenge in the field, and several studies are being conducted with the goal of improving the understanding of this disease. Furthermore, there have been recent updates to classification systems for MDS, including the Molecular International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-M). 

In this podcast, you will hear from Sanam Loghavi, MD, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, and Rami Komrokji, MD, Moffitt Cancer Center, Tampa, FL, who discuss recent updates in the diagnosis, risk stratification and treatment of LR-MDS. This discussion was filmed at the Eleventh Annual Meeting of the Society of Hematologic Oncology (SOHO 2023) held in Houston, TX.
